Kuba

I help you choose mushrooms and herbs that actually make sense for your situation. I've been doing this at Aloha Fungi for over a year.

I'm 25. I work online, with clients across Poland. Besides mushrooms, I practice Chinese medicine and acupuncture, and I'm currently studying physiotherapy.

I've been testing these products on myself for a year and a half. I'd recommend them to anyone.

Kuba

I started with myself

Before I ever advised anyone on anything, I spent six months simply taking these extracts and watching what happened. That's still my first test: would I give this to someone myself.

Earlier, I met Mateusz, the founder of Aloha Fungi. From him I learned how this industry actually works: where the raw material comes from, what a fruiting body is versus mycelium grown on rice, and how an extract differs from ground powder. None of that is on the label, and none of it is on the internet.

The rest I learned on my own. I built my knowledge of mushrooms and herbs independently: from conversations with Mateusz and from Chinese medicine books I still return to today. I didn't inherit it from anyone, and I didn't buy it on a weekend course. I sat with it after hours, because it pulled me in.

After six months I joined the team. For over a year now I've been the one who sits down with another person and works out what actually makes sense in their situation.

If you've ever messaged Aloha Fungi on WhatsApp and Kuba replied, that was me.

In order
  • I met Mateusz

    While studying Chinese medicine.

  • Six months on myself

    I took the products before I ever spoke about them.

  • TCM literature

    The foundation I keep returning to. I read mushrooms and herbs through this lens.

  • Over a year on the team

    Product selection, how to use them, building out support.

  • Acupuncture

    A second practice, run separately. More on that below.

  • Physiotherapy, ongoing

    To understand the body from the conventional side too. That's where the movement advice comes from.

Checking a pulse at the wrist

I ask about you first, then choose the product

I start by asking how you feel and what you need. Then come the standard questions: how much and how well you sleep, how your digestion works, when your energy drops during the day.

The answers build a picture of your state of health. Only from that picture do we decide which changes and which products make the most sense. I choose from Aloha Fungi's functional mushroom extracts.

The same mushroom will act completely differently on two different people.

I also say plainly when I think you don't need to buy anything, or when your situation is serious enough that a doctor should see it first. I'd rather lose an order than lose trust.

What I can do for you

Three different things, from a simple chat about product choice to work that requires more openness on your part. All online.

Mushroom consultation

0 zł

WhatsApp or survey

A conversation about what in the Aloha Fungi range makes sense for your situation and how to use it. You can also start with a short survey. Fill it in whenever you have a moment, and I'll come back with a suggestion.

  • product and dosage selection
  • when and with what to take them
  • what not to combine, and what to tell your doctor
  • an honest "this isn't for you" if that's what I think

Full consultation

99 zł

about 60 minutes · online

It starts with an in-depth survey, unlocked after purchase. Thanks to it, I come into our meeting with a condensed picture of your situation and choose products and recommendations based on that.

  • in-depth survey, unlocked after purchase
  • a meeting from the Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective
  • dietary pointers matched to your picture
  • a herbal blend proposal to consider
  • movement recommendations, such as a qi gong sequence
  • Aloha Fungi mushroom selection against this backdrop
  • a written summary after the meeting

Remote acupuncture

199 zł

60 minutes · interview and work

For people who can't travel to the clinic but feel they need support. The process is far more subtle than needlework, so I describe it below before you decide.

  • a deeper interview
  • the work itself, while you lie quietly at home
  • a conversation afterwards about what you felt

Not sure where to start?

Fill in the free survey. It takes a few minutes, costs nothing, and I come back to you with a product suggestion based on it. No calls, no scheduling needed.

Fill in the free survey

With the full consultation, I unlock an in-depth survey that covers far more than the free one. Thanks to it, I come into our meeting with a condensed picture of your situation and choose products and recommendations based on that. The free survey is a good first step, but by nature it only touches the surface.

You'll receive transfer details after booking a time. The mushroom consultation and the survey are free, don't require booking, and come with no obligation to buy anything.

Let's say it plainly

Remote acupuncture

This is work without needles and without you being physically present in the clinic. We book an hour, do a deeper interview, then you lie quietly at home while I work from my end.

I offer this mainly for people who can't travel to the clinic in Kraków, and soon Warsaw too, but feel they need support. Distance then stops being a reason to put off taking care of yourself.

I draw on the classical teachings of the Jeffrey Yuen school, where I trained. It works with the whole network of channels, not just the point under the needle. In that tradition, energy knows no borders, which is why remote work brings results too. That's the tradition's teaching, not the result of a clinical trial, and I want you to know that's exactly how I present it.

The process itself is far more subtle than a needle session. Don't expect the same physical sensation. It also asks more openness from you than a regular visit, and if that sentence puts you off, that's completely fine, I won't try to talk you into it. I'd rather put it here than spring it on you at the meeting.

I don't promise you a result. I promise you'll know what I'm doing and why.

Have questions before you decide? Good. Write to me, I'll answer honestly, even when the answer is "I don't know".

Ask about remote work
What it looks like
  1. Interview

    An online conversation. Similar to the full consultation, just deeper.

  2. The work

    You lie down somewhere calm and don't have to do anything. We agree beforehand how long it will take.

  3. Closing conversation

    I ask what you felt. We decide whether and when a follow-up makes sense.

Who this is for

  • People outside Kraków for whom travel isn't an option, but who are looking for support.
  • People with an open head and heart, who know this is subtle work, and want to try it.

Who this isn't for

  • If you're looking for a method confirmed by clinical trials. In that case, come work with me in person at the Splot clinic.
  • If you have an acute or serious health problem. In that case, see a doctor first.

Where my knowledge of the body comes from

Alongside Aloha Fungi, I study and work as a Chinese medicine therapist. I completed a school of Traditional and Classical Chinese Medicine, the latter in the Jeffrey Yuen lineage, and I see acupuncture clients at a clinic in Kraków.

I'm also studying physiotherapy, to understand the body from the conventional side too. Thanks to that, in a consultation I can suggest not just a product, but movement: simple exercises and qi gong sequences you do yourself at home, at no cost.

That's a separate thread and not the topic of this page. But it's exactly where the perspective I bring to choosing mushrooms and herbs comes from, and thanks to it, the suggestion starts from your situation, not from a product description.

What people ask most often

How is this different from messaging the shop's support?
Nothing, price-wise: the mushroom consultation is free and is part of my job at Aloha Fungi. The difference is that I don't answer "this product is for that", I ask about your situation first and only then work out a suggestion. Sometimes it ends with me advising against a purchase.
Do I have to buy something?
No. You can book a chat, listen to what I have to say, and order nothing. I work at Aloha Fungi and I say so openly, so you know where my recommendation comes from, but I have no reason to push something that doesn't make sense for you.
Is this medical advice?
No. I'm not a doctor, I don't make medical diagnoses, and I don't treat illness. What I do falls under complementary medicine: it can accompany medical care, but it doesn't replace it. If you have a serious or ongoing health problem, see a doctor first. If you take medication, tell me at the start of our conversation.
What does an online meeting look like?
A normal video call, nothing strange to install. With the full consultation, you fill in an in-depth survey first, so I come into the meeting already with a picture of your situation and we don't waste time on basics. I'll also ask you to show me your tongue on camera, since that's a normal tool in Chinese medicine, and I explain as we go why I need it. After the meeting you get a written summary, so you don't have to take notes during it.
Do you also choose herbs?
Yes, as part of the full consultation. I suggest a blend to consider and explain what that suggestion is based on. Herbs are a separate topic from mushrooms and I treat them separately, partly because they more often interact with medication.
What exactly does remote acupuncture involve?
Work without needles and without your physical presence, based on the classical teaching of the Jeffrey Yuen school. I described it above, in its own section, along with who it's for and who it isn't. It's not a method described in clinical studies, and I don't present it as treatment. If you can travel here, I offer needles in person at the clinic.
What's the difference between the free survey and the one after buying a consultation?
The free survey is short, meant to tell me where to start. Based on it, I write back with a suggestion. The one unlocked after the full consultation is far more detailed: it asks about things you can't sensibly cover in a few minutes, which gives me a condensed picture of your situation before we even meet. You'll find both next to the offer.
How do I book?
For paid sessions, the easiest way is to pick a time in the calendar. You'll find the „Pick a time” button in the offer and contact sections, it shows my open hours, so you book yourself with no back-and-forth. You'll receive transfer details after booking. The mushroom consultation doesn't require booking: message me on WhatsApp or fill in the free survey and I'll get back to you.

Contact

Write to me

You don't have to know exactly what you want yet. Tell me what's bringing you here, and I'll tell you whether and how I can help. If I think I'm not the right person, I'll say that too.

The calendar shows my open hours, so we don't need to arrange a time back and forth.

I'm not a doctor. Consultations, the selection of supplements and herbal blends, and remote work are not medical advice or treatment and do not replace a diagnosis or medical care. Dietary supplements have no medicinal properties and do not replace a varied diet. If you're dealing with a serious or ongoing health problem, are pregnant, or take medication, consult a doctor or pharmacist first.
